All banks in Franklin county that were ordered closed by order of the President of the United Slates and the Governor of Missouri on Saturday, March 4, 1933, were ordered opened by the same authority on Wednesday, March 15. 1933. It is must inconvenient to carry on business with banks rlused, but the people of the county took this order as a matter of urgent necessity, knowing that when the banks would open again they would have belter and stronger banks than they had before the closing order. Money kept in hiding Is finding 1U way back Into the banks since the opening of the banks on Wednesday, and the order of the President and Oovernor has fully restored confidence, and It is safe to say thai bank failures will be no more from now on. Our icoplo, and especially customer. I of banks, all showed a very fine spirit in abiding by the order of the Presi- dent and the Governor, and all ol i which will contribute to belter and safer banking. Banks assist very materially In community building and it is hard to get along without banks. Confidence in all lines has been restored and It will not be long until all lines of business will be on theupgrade. P. LA.

He talked lo the three about 15 minutes, when two men entered the house with drawn guns and demanded of the Masons all their money and that, if they did not give all the money they had they would set them on lire. To make good their threat they went lo work and poured gasoline down the backs of Ihp three Masons, which would be set on fire If they did not give up their valuables. The robbers obtained from the Masons $G0 In cash. 4 $100 Liberty bonds and 425.000 in registered bonds.

S. Meisner, I"ld Inspector of the Crop Production Loan Office. Mr. Mei.siier's nfUcc is in The Tribune Office, Union. Mo. lustead ol writing lo Wa.,hiiie,on or to on- of the regional loan offices. Mr. Meisner announced, laim-rs can obtain the necessary application blanks lor loans, and detailed lulni malum about the requirements, direct lrom him. Applications will then be reviewed by the county advisory committee, then certified and forwarded to the regional office at St. Louis for final approval and action. The regulations this year specify that only those who cannot get loans elsewhere are eligible for loans lrom the I90 00O.000 fund authorized by Congress. Loans can he Used only for crop production, and require the borrower to reduce his acreaye el cash crops 30 per cent under last year, unless he decs not intend to plant more than 8 acres of cotton,' 2's acres of tobacco. 8 acres of peanuts, 20 acres of corn, 12 acres of sugar beets, 2'i acres of truck crops. 8 acres cf potaloes. 30 acres of rice, or 40 acres of wheat. The maximum permitted to any one borrower this yenr is $300; or, in the case of tenants, the tolal of all loans to tenants of any one landlord within a sinelc county cannot exceed $12(!0. The ciitual amount advanced by the authorities will depend upon tho borrower's requirements. A first lien or mortgage on the croj) wfil be required. The regulations require that loans be repaid on or before October 31, 1933. Interest at 5'-j per cent, deducted in advance, will be charged. Since the loans call lur a first lien on the crop as security, the borrower frequently has to procure waivers from prior mortgages or nidils. Tf the applicant is a tenant, or is farming land under contract for deed or so-called crop contract, or has given a prior mortgage on his 1933 crops, the reg ulations state he must secure the waivers of the actual owners of the land, andor all prior mortgage holders. If ! the ap)licant is the cwner of land and farms it with tenants or share croppers waivers of such tenants or share croppers must be secured. The regulations luither specify that the person waiving his prior ri,hls must agree not to dispose of his rent nole. mortgage, or other security without lirst having obtained the written consent of a duly authorized agent of the Secretary of Agriculture. The regulations make it unlawful for any person to dispose of or assist in disposing of any crops given as security for any crop loan, except fur the account cf the Seccrtary of Agriculture and provide for fine and imprisonment for violation of such regulation. The regulations also require that each borrower agree to plant a garden for his home use and sufficient acreage to furnish feed for his live- 'stock COUNTY COURT IN ADJOURNED SESSION Many Allowances Made by Court in ltusy March Session Here.

All banks in Franklin county that were ordered closed by order of the President of the United Slates and the Governor of Missouri on Saturday, March 4, 1933, were ordered opened by the same authority on Wednesday, March 15. 1933. It is must inconvenient to carry on business with banks rlused, but the people of the county took this order as a matter of urgent necessity, knowing that when the banks would open again they would have belter and stronger banks than they had before the closing order. Money kept in hiding Is finding 1U way back Into the banks since the opening of the banks on Wednesday, and the order of the President and Oovernor has fully restored confidence, and It is safe to say thai bank failures will be no more from now on. Our icoplo, and especially customer. I of banks, all showed a very fine spirit in abiding by the order of the Presi- dent and the Governor, and all ol i which will contribute to belter and safer banking. Banks assist very materially In community building and it is hard to get along without banks. Confidence in all lines has been restored and It will not be long until all lines of business will be on theupgrade. P. LA.

A man came to their home and told them they had mineral and oil deposits on their land and that he would like to enter Into a lease with them for the privilege of prospecting. He talked lo the three about 15 minutes, when two men entered the house with drawn guns and demanded of the Masons all their money and that, if they did not give all the money they had they would set them on lire. To make good their threat they went lo work and poured gasoline down the backs of Ihp three Masons, which would be set on fire If they did not give up their valuables. The robbers obtained from the Masons $G0 In cash. 4 $100 Liberty bonds and 425.000 in registered bonds.

S. Meisner, I"ld Inspector of the Crop Production Loan Office. Mr. Mei.siier's nfUcc is in The Tribune Office, Union. Mo. lustead ol writing lo Wa.,hiiie,on or to on- of the regional loan offices. Mr. Meisner announced, laim-rs can obtain the necessary application blanks lor loans, and detailed lulni malum about the requirements, direct lrom him. Applications will then be reviewed by the county advisory committee, then certified and forwarded to the regional office at St. Louis for final approval and action. The regulations this year specify that only those who cannot get loans elsewhere are eligible for loans lrom the I90 00O.000 fund authorized by Congress. Loans can he Used only for crop production, and require the borrower to reduce his acreaye el cash crops 30 per cent under last year, unless he decs not intend to plant more than 8 acres of cotton,' 2's acres of tobacco. 8 acres of peanuts, 20 acres of corn, 12 acres of sugar beets, 2'i acres of truck crops. 8 acres cf potaloes. 30 acres of rice, or 40 acres of wheat. The maximum permitted to any one borrower this yenr is $300; or, in the case of tenants, the tolal of all loans to tenants of any one landlord within a sinelc county cannot exceed $12(!0.

Tf the applicant is a tenant, or is farming land under contract for deed or so-called crop contract, or has given a prior mortgage on his 1933 crops, the reg ulations state he must secure the waivers of the actual owners of the land, andor all prior mortgage holders. If ! the ap)licant is the cwner of land and farms it with tenants or share croppers waivers of such tenants or share croppers must be secured. The regulations luither specify that the person waiving his prior ri,hls must agree not to dispose of his rent nole. mortgage, or other security without lirst having obtained the written consent of a duly authorized agent of the Secretary of Agriculture. The regulations make it unlawful for any person to dispose of or assist in disposing of any crops given as security for any crop loan, except fur the account cf the Seccrtary of Agriculture and provide for fine and imprisonment for violation of such regulation.
